Travelling theory: Western knowledge and its Indian object
No full textFrom the1830s the colonial government in India became the agency for the promotion of ‘Western education’, that is, education that sought to disseminate modern, Western, rational knowledge through modern institutions and pedagogic processes. This paper examines a historical
episode in which certain key categories of modern Western thought were pressed into service to explain a consequence of the dissemination of Western knowledge in colonial India. The episode in question was that of the alleged ‘moral crisis’ of the educated Indian, who, many argued, had been plunged into confusion and moral disarray following his exposure to Western knowledge in the schools and universities established by his British ruler. In the discourse of moral crisis, the knowledge being disseminated through Western education was simultaneously put to use in explaining an unanticipated effect of this education. How adequate was Western knowledge to explaining its own effects? More generally –for this paper is drawn from a larger study of how modern Western knowledge ‘travelled’ when transplanted to colonial India – what is the status of the knowledge we produce when we ‘apply’ the categories of
modern Western thought in order to understand or explain India

A Mixed Method Study of Educators Aiming To Increase Equity In Gifted Education Through A K-6 Talent Development Program
No full textAbstractA MIXED METHOD STUDY OF EDUCATORS AIMING TO INCREASE EQUITY IN GIFTED EDUCATION THROUGH A K-6 TALENT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM Theresa M. Carson Ph.D.Dissertation Director: Dr. Seth B. Hunter For almost a century, gifted programs throughout the United States have been criticized for their lack of equity. Underrepresented groups in gifted and other advanced academic programs are ethnically, culturally, linguistically, economically diverse (ECLED) students. To address this issue, some school systems throughout the United States have turned to talent development (TD) programs; initiatives that seek out targeted learners who exhibit advanced academic potential and nurture that potential. This mixed method study explores the outcomes of a TD intervention at one school district’s Title I schools from the teachers' perspectives. The results indicate the Young Scholars (YS) talent development model can be an effective remedy for underrepresentation. However, this closing of the “opportunity gap” for diverse learners did not necessarily equate to more ECLED students being formally identified as gifted. Keywords: underrepresentation, gifted, talent development, Young Scholar
